Inhumanity

Farm laborer
Produces
Food for you and me;
Commits suicide
Owing hunger and
Non repayable debt...
We accumulate
His grains
Eat
Waste...

(Every day, 28 people dependent on farming die by suicide in India)

Inhumanity indeed! To make people toil without hope of good food and life… a very important thing to bring into the light, my friend!
